Un multimilliardaire qui ne croit pas en l'amour et un garçon pauvre et timide qui n'a jamais connu l'amour. Ça promet une romance hors du commun. Plongez dans l’histoire d’amour hors du commun de Juan-Pablo et d’Adrien et découvrez un amour pur et rempli de passion entre un homme et un garçon… Juan Pablo Alcazar est le PDG et héritier du groupe Alcazar Média, une entreprise audiovisuelle créée par son défunt père. Homme de 28 ans, grand, beau et imposant, il est marié avec Rébecca, un mannequin dont il n'est pas amoureux. Il dit ne pas croire en l'amour et n'a pas le temps à lui consacrer. Adrian est un jeune homme de 20 ans, mais qui paraît beaucoup plus jeune que son âge. Il est orphelin et a grandi dans un centre où il s'est échappé à l'âge de 14 ans, car il se faisait harceler à cause de sa façon d'être un peu trop efféminé et enfantin. Mais aussi, parce qu'il préfère la danser plutôt que de jouer aux jeux des garçons. Il a été recueilli par un vieil homme nommé Don Philippe, qui l'a adopté comme son petit-fils. La douceur et les manières enfantines d’Adrian ne tarderont pas à gagner petit à petit le cœur de cet homme, qui était convaincu ne pas croire en l’amour et qui était loin d'imaginer que l'amour de sa vie, ce serait un garçon.

Aux yeux des autres, j'étais Mme Ward, la reine intouchable aux côtés d'Elias Ward, le chef de la mafia de Paris. Mais je savais que mon mari ne m'avait jamais aimée. Son cœur appartenait toujours à Harper Dinah, la femme de son neveu. Et après la mort de ce dernier, il n'a pas hésité à faire venir Harper chez nous. « Je veux juste mieux m'occuper d'elle », m'a-t-il dit. Mais sa version de « s'occuper d'elle » consistait à expulser un homme d'une fête parce qu'il avait osé flirter avec Harper et à la rendre enceinte. Elias adorait me complimenter en public, comme si j'étais la femme parfaite. Oui, je l'avais été autrefois. J'avais l'aidé à bâtir son empire et fait briller son casino. J'étais celle qui souriait, aimable, toujours accueillante. Et pendant ce temps, il cachait Harper, comme si elle était une relique sacrée. Puis, c'était grâce à « ces louanges » incessantes qu'un de ses ennemis m'a prise pour cible. Un groupe de voyous m'a enlevée, envoyant à Elias un message menaçant : « Dégage de Paris, ou ta femme va y passer ! » Bien sûr, Elias n'a pas choisi de céder. « Tiens bon », m'a-t-il dit au téléphone, « Ils ne te feront pas de mal, Noah. Tiens jusqu'à ce que Harper accouche. Je viendrai te chercher. » J'ai été alors enfermée dans une cave sale pendant huit mois, affamée, battue, humiliée. Le chef des malfrats m'a violée encore et encore. Et pourtant, Elias n'est jamais venu. Finalement, alors qu'ils étaient tous ivres, j'ai réussi à m'échapper. De retour chez moi, j'ai trouvé mes jumeaux endormis dans la chambre des domestiques, mangeant des restes, tandis que leur père organisait une fête pour son nouveau-né... Je ne l'ai pas affronté et suis partie avec mes enfants.

Vous pourrez revenir une autre fois. » A ce moment-là, mon fils et moi nous figeons sur place tous les deux.

He yanked his hand off my ass forcefully, and the thong snapped. The sound and the smack of it against my skin made me shudder, almost cumming. He pulled the black thong away from me, the small fabric slick with my juices, and stuffed it in my open mouth. I groaned, hearing the tortured sound of my own groan muffled by my panties slick with my own wet. And I moaned again. “So many fucking things I wanna do to your body, Leilani.” He growled, “I’m gonna f*ck you so hard.” He said, gazing sinfully into my eyes as he said those maddening words and slid his erect cock out of his grey sweatpants. My vagina clenched, spilling more moisture. Then he parted my legs even wider and plunged his cock into my vagina. Deep. Wet. Hard.
